Fynne Wellspace reached out to me to plan another Self-Care Sunday community wellness event. Many community members I spoke to at our last event said that they loved the opportunity to gather and create space to invite more wellness in as a community. I said yes right away.
I've worked with Fynne on some non-profit work in the past. For this event we donated our proceeds to projects to help rebuild schools for children in Lahaina impacted by the Maui Fires in partnership with Better Humanity Project. I asked my mom to lead a Gua Sha therapy workshop, and she was in 🥹💛
The afternoon was filled with workshops, activities, and mindset practices to achieve better work-life wellness. We gathered in Downtown Los Angeles at The 00 Studio (an event space and photo studio) managed by The 00 Agency. We began our afternoon with a relaxing sound therapy session, practicing breathwork, meditation, and a bit of chi gong hosted by Harry Bui (@harrytheyogi). 
Next, my mom Dr Tina Hou (@drtinahou) hosted a gua sha therapy workshop, sharing best practices for gua sha techniques on various parts of the body - scalp, neck, shoulders, arms, and face. She demonstrated using one of our newest products: Butterfly Gua Sha. It's a new game-changing gua sha tool that we designed to help better contour your cheekbones, jaw, and neck, while also being so versatile to relief tension on other parts of your body.
Michelle, who was our lovely demo volunteer, enjoyed her experience so much she purchased one, took it home, and started using it right away. She's been sharing with us how much she loves it, and she recently left us a 5-star review - thank you Michelle! 😭🙌 
These magical Butterfly BB's sold out in her first few weeks of launch. For those asking - we're happy to share that we have a new shipment on the way! (Update 9/13/23: Butterfly Gua Shas are now back in stock 😍)
Next - tea time! 🫖 We learned the benefits of drinking tea, and watched a traditional tea ceremony demonstration hosted by Rich and Pour Co. (@richandpourco) performed by Al Morinaka (@islandstyley). We all enjoyed tea together 🍵
Next, Fynne Wellspace ( @fynnewellspace) hosted workshops on building resilience and productivity science. It was very helpful to learn various tips for increasing our work-life wellness, mental health, and balance.
It was a nice Sunday afternoon being able to connect, share space, and learn wellness techniques for a better and healthier wellbeing. A moment for our yummy snack table!
We left everyone with a goodie bag, filled with wellness tools and self-care products:
- @livehoneybelle Relief Roll-on Remedy and Crystal Facial Roller
- @erborian_usa Yuza Vitamin Mask
- @esw.beauty Deep Detox Raw Juice Mask
- @drinkredy CBD Hemp Infused Seltzer
- @supervibe Blueberry Bliss Bar
